An IIT-Delhi graduate may be in the running to become WhatsApp’s CEO

[KapitaanAli]

All these CEOs who later don't contribute to India are nothing but a shame and not to be celebrated.

When they work for the foreign company, sure, keep the company's interests.

Its a security threat that all these indians are getting jobs at these date driven companies.

US must keep a keen eye on indian immigrants working in the IT sector handling private data.

U think they cant find ceos amongst americans or europeans who make smartest leaders? How many worlds leading corporates or conglomerates have been raised by indians ?- almost zilch yet they put indians on ceo positions when they can get smarter americans to do the work , they have a reason to put them in lead roles.

These indians ceos and indian origin politicans always firstly work for their country of origins interests before the employer companys or country of residences interests.

Remeber how indians had been using their influence to get pakistani twitter accounts monitored and suspended or getting fb accounts suspended that supported burhan wani and kashmir freedom. N still happening

China is ideal in a sense that instead of allowing google or other social networking sites ( that work for cia) to run in china , they run their own search engines and social networking portols

Dude I was being sarcastic

I know, I was just giving you the reason why a company like WhatsApp which used to charge money for its service per year became totally free later and is now a multi billion dollar company. One can argue that Google/Facebook sells ads but there is no other way WhatsApp can earn money except from selling data. Good thing people have started to care about these things, which was never going to happen under UPA era. Not a month ago RBI asked companies to store data within India, but only financial data. https://m.rediff.com/business/report/rbi-wants-customers-financial-data-stored-in-india/20180407.htm

Buddy if you start boycotting everything that is Zionist ,Hindu there may be nothing left
Similar thing happened when mark Zuckerberg and Narendra Modi signed a deal to provide free internet service to villages in India ,there were calls of boycotting Facebook in Pakistan but nothing happened

Its a security threat that all these indians are getting jobs at these date driven companies.

US must keep a keen eye on indian immigrants working in the IT sector handling private data.

Why exactly is it a security threat?
Indians are the ones that are basically running silicon valley
Our talent is what making us the heads off these firms,

Boycott Facebook - zukerberg is zionist
Boycott Windows - Satya Nadela is Indian
Boycott Google - Sundar Pichai is Indian
Boycott Whatsapp - Neeraj Arora is Indian
Boycott Pepsi - Indira Nooyi is Indian

First rule of false flagging - dont be too obvious asking for boycott of your own country.

Bahahahha
You got him buddy

When you get something for free you actually are the product

You mean our information I guess. I agree.

WhatsApp, the world’s largest messaging service, is currently looking for a new CEO, and there could be an Indian in the running for the corner office.

On April 30, WhatsApp co-founder and CEO Jan Koum resigned from Facebook, which owns the messaging app, following disagreements over the privacy of user data. Among the frontrunners to take over Koum’s job is the company’s business executive Neeraj Arora, according to a TechCrunch report. An unnamed source described him as the number four at the California-headquartered company.

Arora, who calls himself the “Business Guy” at WhatsApp on his LinkedIn profile, has been with the company since 2011, three years before it was acquired by social media giant Facebook. Before that, he worked at Google for nearly four years as part of the company’s corporate development team, which looked at acquisitions and strategic investments across products and geographies.

Arora was also on the board of India’s largest digital payments firm, Paytm, from June 2015 to February 2018.

A graduate of the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT-D), Arora has an MBA from the Indian School of Business (ISB). “He is well-connected and this has helped him move up the ladder,” Mohit Garg, co-founder of training software firm MindTickle and Arora’s batchmate at ISB, told The Economic Times in 2016. “…he was not a cookie cutter guy, (he) was diligent and knew where he had to reach in life,” said Shrutkeerti Khurana, another batchmate.

Arora has been pivotal in furthering WhatsApp’s success story in India. He is credited with convincing Anil Ambani’s Reliance Communications to bundle the unlimited use of WhatsApp with a monthly data plan priced at Rs16 ($0.20) and getting Tata Docomo to offer unlimited WhatsApp usage for Rs15 for 15 days.

If he does make the cut for the role, he’ll be joining the ranks of other Indian-origin leaders at the helm of Silicon Valley companies, including Sundar Pichai at Google, Satya Nadella at Microsoft, and Shantanu Narayen at Adobe.

WhatsApp’s next CEO has a big task cut out for him to regain users’ confidence. This, at a time when the messaging app’s parent company Facebook continues to battle major trust issues in the aftermath of the Cambridge Analytica voter manipulation controversy. Koum reportedly left over (paywall) the company’s attempts to weaken encryption and collect more detailed information on users. Brian Acton, who started WhatsApp with Koum in 2009 and quit the company to start his own non-profit organisation, has been a vocal supporter of the #DeleteFacebook movement since the scandal was unearthed.

Why can't Indians create something to compete against whatsapp instead of working for whatsapp? Makes sense?

Well PDF indians are laughing at ofo for entering India market.

Base on the experience of these keyboard CEOs its a question of willingness of Indians. If china can do it so can India. Its a matter of time. They will do it eventually. They will happen. someday. SP2012.
